Steam Workshop::FVR Supercars 2025
This is FVRFactor's representation of the 2025 Australian Gen 3 Supercars. These cars are a 2025 season update to our current Gen 3 Supercar mod. Fantastic scratch built 3D car models from Flash (Jeremy) with physics updates and fresh skins, suits and helmets from Feralarri (Gavin). Again this year has been a real struggle for time (just don't know where it goes) and we apologise for how late this years mod is but as we are getting older there is so much more in our lives that is distracting and keeping us from our hobby.
The physics have been reviewed from 2024 with some changes to F/R Roll Centre's and the default setup. Tires are the same as last year and they take a couple of laps to build pressure before the grip comes up and starting pressures lowered to match Real life. Racing in this season has been altered to mainly be on the soft tyre as in Real Life.
The 2025 season has been painted faithfully as of approx. Round 1 2025 with no wild card entries. AI class for main season is 'FVR_V8SC25'. The Mustang Dash has been updated to 2025 spec including the tablet screen and the template has been updated and will be available for you to use along with existing template versions to paint your own body and window versions.
Interior wise the cars have paintable dash and advertising boards through templates for your use. Also driver suits and helmets are paintable to suit your own livery.
**** Tuning Menu now has limited options, with Position LEDS set permanently on and FFB set for the car. The brake bias is settable in 0.1 or 0.5 increments. The in car dash which contains most of the race info you would need. In addition there is three other alternate dashes to try as well. We also included two variations on camera eyepoint for driving eg. Triple Screens or Single screen (should be good for VR as well).
In addition we have included a 'track conditions' setting controlled by trackconfig file only in main version not league version to attempt to dial car speed in to more closely match RL times****
**** FFB can be adjusted in game now for individual cars from the Gear Icon in top right hand corner, under 'Calibrate controls'.****
The diff ratios and tyres are locked for the Australian tracks to mimic the real race requirements. There is a Server Edition (LE) with open diffs and tyre combinations for online racing. Please be mindful these cars run a spool diff which means a fixed axle unlike your normal cars. Therefore you can get extra wear if you are too hard on them and they can tend to try and drive around in a circle at low speed corners. You have to be smooth. The diff in these cars will make them unlike a GT3 car.
There has not been a lot of AI testing done so for those people who single player race, please give constructive feedback if there is any major issues bearing in mind that sometimes it is variations in the track that causes the issue rather than AI itself.
Any issue's painting or with the mod please drop us a comment in discord or FB and we will try to answer when we can.
Please enjoy as we have enjoyed bringing this to you
Please understand that if you find a fault this is a constant Work in Progress, we are only human let us know as we may be able to update it but enjoy it for the short term. We do this for our own enjoyment and hopefully yours along the way. We aren't a big team with only two of us these days so it has been a lot of hard work for the last two years. Paypal donations are always appreciated of course - paypal.me/atFVR

2025 Mod is independent of the previous mods. We built the models from scratch so they aren't perfect but modding is a hobby.
